Has budget of ‘Saaho’ already gone too high?

‘Saaho’, it was said, will be made at a cost of Rs. 150 Cr in Telugu, Tamil, Hindi and Malayalam.

As per some latest reports, the budget has soared too high, if it didn’t already. The producers at UV Creations are gearing up to spend Rs. 220 Cr it seems.

Is the new budget only notional? Figures are inflated with an eye on the pre-release market. Would any producer be ready to spend unsustainable amounts on a second-time director like Sujeeth, whoever may be the hero?
